loved the pep talk :)

Wow, dark! Simple gameplay but the animation's fantastic. Love the narration, but my favourite part must be the screen cracking to represent your health. Very nice

Really immersive experience, I liked the narrator's voice - the game was pretty relaxing in a way. Good job!

Intro is really nice animations, nice work. The enemy spawn is impossible to dodge sometimes though.

Ahhh it was really good ! Despite the extremely classic gameplay and its lack of variation, as long with some visual glitches, I really loved the original narration (I listened to it until the end, even after I died) and the visuals (the slit glass effect for health and the pixel art).

didnt survive - loved the talk

A simple game overall. I kept playing wanting to know what the voice would say next. The good thing was that the game was not so complicated that it would distract from the recording.

It felt like a journey, a conversation with yourself in those last moments. I liked it.

Fantastic entry. Beautifully used the theme (literally and figuratively!) and was delightful to experience. I only wish you didn't pitch-shift your voice.

Yay survived on first try :>
Liked the talk, I'm okay with the pitch shift, it goes well with the under sea ambiance. Maybe a fancier sound effect would have been more appreciated?

Man, really great game. Very engaging. You must also have a really big monitor :)

great graphics and audio, sweet gameplay that makes you want to go deeper. Liked that game even if I didn't understand why I died

The narration made me play the whole thing and it really fits the whole atmosphere. The animations are pretty good, too. Nice work!

For those in the dark about why they die in the end, its because of the water pressure buildup.
you cannot expect to go on forever, do you?

So once you reach level 5, your health slowly counts down till you pass out.

Thank you all for the great feedback, I would love to hear what I could improve for the next time!
